Port Hacking flattie


Yowie

Recommended Posts

Headed up from Lilli Pilli early this morning. Hardly worth the effort.

The only legal fish was this flattie. Just a couple of little reddies, and 2 pillies - no yakkas at all to be caught.

Flattie released to be caught again some day.

Nice solid fish.

Put up a bit of a fight, then took off when she saw the net in her face..

Nice flattie there Yowie.  Well done on the release. It's very  unusual for you to come home without dinner. 

Just one of those days when there was bugger all about.

Top flatty! Well done the release. May you catch her again one day when she gets bigger. 

I have released 5 flatties this year, the biggest at 88cm, so there are a few growing bigger somewhere in the Hacking.

Good on you releasing her - my 'shore crew' (and cook) would complain if I didn't bring anything home for dinner so the pressure is always on - and my catch rate isn't always as good as some of you guys as I am in a kayak and can't cover as much ground as the boaties.

Was thinking about a feed, though they are good breeders at that size and a bit firmer meat than the smaller ones.

i went out yesterday arvo land based in the hacking - not a bite.

great flatty, at least you got something worth mentioning 

I have seen bream in different areas, close to shore. A bit of berley may help.

Thanks Basil. The flatties are about in Bate Bay or further south.
